A nice MTB ride (or race if you are very fit) will be held on March 27th starting at Catchpool parking.
It’s one of the rare chances to get into the Rimutaka Forest Park on a bike. The route goes down the 5-mile track, turns south towards good old Paua Hut, and follows the 4WD track down to the sea. From there it is sealed road back to Catchpool. Expect to be on the bike for 1.5-2.5 hours depending on skills and fitness.
Last year WTMC was well represented (on an individual basis) with four entrants and even a category winner (Sandra Beaubien). Entry cost is low, and all the money goes into the event, which has many many spot prizes.
If you’re up for it – enter quickly as entry numbers are limited.

Have fun, Hans.
